Dave Johnston, vice-president
in-charge of Cominco’s northern

operations, said the postpone-

ment was due to obstacles in
obtaining permits from govern-
ment regulators, The permits are
in place now, he said, but there
isn’t enough time left before
winter to finish the project.

activities for the remainder of

Projections: from current re-

will probably operate for at least
eight years. Johnston said
they’re expecting production of

‘90,000 ounces of gold annually

when the mine begins, tapering

off to 65,000 ounces as the grade

of the ore drops off.

Principal of the Brockville cam-

following year was moved to the
Kingston campus, where he was
responsible for all facets of cam-

Anderson made a major move
in 1976 by accepting the position
of President of Lethbridge
Community College. During his

three-year stay in Lethbridge,

Anderson introduced a partici-

“During his nine years: in

perience had a’ ‘significant ith-
pact on the New Caledonia cam-

improvement in the industrial
relations climate, expanded pro-
gramming and enrollments, the

development of regional centers,

An interesting side note to
Anderson’s career in education
took place in August of 1981.
Taking a year’s leave of absence
from New Caledonia, Anderson:
moved to a small, remote South
Pacific atoll in the Marshall
Islands where he was responsible
for the operation of a private
residential high school attended
by 300 Micronesian students. -

“It was reassuring to find that
students could still learn without
the luxuries of running water,
electricity, desks and chairs, or

chalk,” Anderson recalls. It was

a rewarding experience he would

like to relive. When interviewed

by the Terrace Review last win-
-ter, Anderson spoke of future

plans to join the Canadian Inter-
national Development Agency
(CIDA) and visit another South
Pacific atoll as an educator. But:
those plans have changed now
